Reginald Nwankwo is a high-ranking Nigerian official who, at the beginning of Girls at War, is intercepting some food aid at an air strip to deliver to his family. He feels bad about taking food intended for war refugees, but his family must eat. As he is being driven away from the strip, Reginald notices Gladys, a woman he has crossed paths with in the past, standing by the side of the road and picks her up. Reginald offers to drive her the rest of her way, but he recommends they stop at his residence first. At one point they hear a plane fly over and worry that it is a bomber. It is not, but Gladys and Reginald huddle in his shelter and make love.

That night, Gladys and Reginald go to a party of Nigerian official, where Gladys dances and has a grand time. After a drunken incident at the party, Reginald silently wonders if Gladys is a prostitute. After some though, he decides to help her and gives her one half of the food he intercepted early that day. She cries with gratitude. The next day, Reginald and Gladys are driving down the road. It is raining, and Reginald notices a wounded soldier on a crutch. He picks him up. Immediately after he does this, a bomber flies over. Reginald, Gladys, and the soldier run, and Reginald is knocked unconscious in the bomb blast. When he comes to, his car is on fire and Gladys and the soldier are dead.
